FULTON ENEMIES
PLOT FURTHES
ON GOUNTY
Bill to Transfer Clayton to Fifth
District Is Scheme of
Politicians.
By JAMES B. NEVIN,

that has passed the Senate and gone
to the Housse,

tee. And it looks
as if there is some Sixth District pol
itics in it, too
The Fifth District, as constituted
under the 1911 reapportionment act,
embraces the counties of Fulton, with
177,733 population; DeKalb, with 21,-
881;: Rockdale, with 89016, Douglas,
with 8,953, and Camphell, with 10,-
874. This is a total of five countles
with 234,357 population by the 1910
census
The 'ifth is by far the largest pop
ulated district in the State, and at
the same time the smallest in area
and number of counties. But the
combined population of the four rural
counties is only 56,624, as against
Fulton's 177,783, or only about one
fourth of the total
Under the county unit system,
which controls Congressional as well
as statehouse and legislative prima
ries, Fulton County has six unit votes,
DeKalb 4 anq Campbell, Douglas and
Rockdale two each, a total of sixteen
units for the district, as at present
constituted
The result is that Fulton County,
with three-fourths of the population,
has but three-fourths of the unit
vots, the other five-elghths unit
strength going to the one-fourth pop
ulation in the outside countles
Consequently, if Fulton County has
any control of the district, it must
secure the full support of DeKalb or
of two of the three two-unit counties
To even secure a tie, it must have
the support of one. If the four out
side counties shounld conspire against
Fulton, this county, despite its popu
lation, would be in effect disfran
chised in Congressional affairs
Not satisfled with such a condition,

trict’'s population at the mercy of a

A. P. Matthews, District Passenger Agent, 6 North Pryor Street, Atlanta, Ga. = : : ‘
one-fourth minority, enemlies, appar
ently, of Fulton County are proposing,
through this Clayton County transfer,
to put Fulton still more at the mer:y
of the outside counties, by making its
unit strength only one-third that of
the whole district, and forcing this
county to combat five instead of four
counties on the outside!
The Fifth District already s con
siderably larger than the Sixth in
point of population—which is the
thing upon which Congressional ap
portionment is based. Why make it
gtill larger—and the Sixth District
still smaller--by transferring Clayton
to the Fifth?
Somehow or other, there seems to
he something about thig proposition
that “don’t smell like to jo-raneum!"”
The legislative Representatives
from the county of Bibb favor the
measure—it gets rid of Clayton for
them. But the Representatives of the
county of Fulton should consider well
this bill before THEY permit it to
pass.
It was introduced by Senator Hule,
who lives in Clayton County.
Charles E. Jordon, Chief of Police
of Sylvester, says that Govenor Sla
ton will carry Worth County easlly
for the Senate, and that he likely also
will carry both Tift and Irwin.
Chief Jordon says that Governor
Slaton has grown wonderfully in
strength within the past 30 days, not
only in his immediate vicinity but
throughout all South Georgia.
Two big campalign rallies will be
held |n Atlanta to-day,
Randolph Anderson's friends from
all over Georgia will meet in Room
102 in the Kimball House at 5 o’clock
this afternoon, there to discuss in de
tail some of-the features of that gen
tleman's campaign for Governor, and
Judge “Nat” Harrig' friends of the
same persuasion will gather to-nignt
at 8§ o’clock in the ballroom of the
Piedmont for the same purpose.
Both meetings are expected to ne
largely attended and to have consider
able bearing upon the State political
situation.
The fight between Mr. Anderson
and Judge Harris has grown to be &
very pretty one, indeed, from a non
partisan standpoint. Both men have
shown flne form thus far, and each
has a large, aggressive and highly in
fluential following.
(‘ongressman Thomas W. Hardwick
spent a few hours in Atlanta on Sun
day and was in conference with a
number of his friends.
Mr. Hardwick has been vnmpal?’n
ing strenuously of late, but shows Ift
tle ill effects from the same. He yet
has a long speech-making program
ahead,
Mr. Hardwick expresses himself as
entirely satisfed with the situation
from his standpoint, and says he con
fidently expects to be nominated for
the Senate
It was stated at Dr. Hardman's
headquarters Monday that during the
present week initiatory steps toward
the formation of a strong State-wide
organization will be taken. The peo
ple at his headquarters say that every
day reports are being recelved from
ali parts of the State of the orgam
zation of Dr. Hardman's friends into
Hardman clubs, which encourages
the doctor very much,
It Is expected that the Commerce
headquarters will be consolidated in
Atlanta with the Atlanta headquar
ters within the next ten days, and
Dr. Hardman's entire campaign will
be handled from Atlanta. Already the
Atlanta headquarters office force 's
being strengthened and enlarged.
Dr. Hardman spent most of last
week in Commerce, helping entertain
the visitors to the State Press Asso
clation's meeting.
Alfred C. Newell apparently doesnt
think very much of Colonel J. R
Smith's Sunday attack on Governor
Slaton's legislative record. The Gov
ernor himself apparently doesn't
think enough of it even to answer It
after any fashion.
Newell says J. R. merely Is “peeved
because Slaton didn’t name him Sen
ator to succeed Senator Bacon,” and
that he (Smith) wag strong enougin
for Slaton when that gentlemman was
a candidate for Governor some two
Years ago.
Newell points out that Slanto’s rec
ord was exactly the same when Smith
was “tearing his shirt” for Slaton
that it is now that Smith is viewing
the Slaton candidacy with so much
alarm.
Newell points out that Slaton's rac.
have been rather a sorry joke for
Slaton to have named Smith Senator,
notwithstanding some half dozen or
so telegramg the Governor did re
ceive asking him to name Smith—all
of which came, curiously enough,
from Smith’s old home county, and
all of which arrived in the Executive
otfices about the same time.

action is expected to be taken at once
to strike the trail again of these two
voung women and ascertain their
identity. Johnson wrote that he had
not seen them since, and didr’t know
what train they boarded out of Vicks
burg.
“Something must be done to keep
that man in view—he must not be
allowed to flee.”
Mrs. Nelms Sunday afternoon
called at the meeting of thePsycho
logical Society In the Piedmont Hotel,
and made an impassioned plea to the
poclety to aid her in the hunt for the
missing girls.
“I'm asking everyone to help me
~l'd like to get the whole world in
terested,” sald the frantic mother.
In her talk to the soclety, Mrs.
Nelms, as she dld in letters to Sen
ator Hoke Smith and Congressman
Howard and Congressman Hardwick,
recited in detail the story of Mrs.
Dennis’ relations with Victor Innes.
Mysterious Woman Again.
According fo a report from Hous
ton, Texas, the Nelms girls did not
stop in Houston, but traveled to
gether as far as San Antonio. This
fnformation iz furnished by Mrs,
Frank Dwyer, a druggist at No. 1320
Washington avenue, Houston, who
said she was on the same train with
the Nelms sisters from Houston to
San Antonio and conversed with
them. This story simply corroborates
Attorney Thomas B. Lewis, of Hous
ton, who rode with the couple from
New Orleans. He said they stopped
in Houston only long enough to buy
tickets to San Antonlo,
Mrs. Dwyer brings another figure
into the mystery in a statement that
there was a dignified looking middle
aged woman with the Nelms slsters.
Whether this wceman was the mys
terious “Mrs. Mims” is problemati
cal. Mrs. Dwyer said Miss Beatrice
alked enthusiastically of her real
estate operations in Atlanta and in
other parts of the country.
Marshall Nelms still is firm in the
belief that the two girls have fallen
victim to a well-planned plot.
“All Points to Innes.”
“Fvery bit of evidence that we
have been able to uncover has more
thoroughly convinced me that Victor
Innes is the man who can shed light
on the disappearance of my sisters’”
sald voung Nelms in summing up the
developments of the iast week in the
great country-wide hunt,
“If we ca nonly find some way to
force or induce him to speak and tell
all he knows, I'm satisfled we'll soon
ferret out the mystery and know the
fate of my sisters. The fact that he
wag careful to have all letters de
stroyed that he had written to my
sister Eloise, and the further fact,
which 1 sincerely believe, that he had
intimidated her and frightened her
into shielding his name, and his
dealings with her shows his shrewd
ness in burning all bridges behind
him. This is what makes it so dif
ficult for us to get at the truth and
details of his relations with my sis
ter.”
And then he added:
“But the truth will out finally—
nothing can keep it down—and I'm
eoing to know it. It may be a long
time before this mystery is solved,
‘but I'll never cease work on it so
\lnng as there is breath in my body.”

With their plans for an elopement
frustrated by the girl's father, pretty
15-year-old Hortense Hardy, of
Gainesville, and her youthful flance,
Howard Boyd, of No. 60 Neal streel,
Monday were bewailing the fate that
prevented them from embarking on‘
the troubled seas of matrimony.
Miss Hardy is en route to the paren- |
tal domicile carefuly guarded by her
tather, and young Howard has been
sent home by the police, with the
admonition that he wait a few years
before trying to-claim his bride. 1
The plans of the would-be mewly
weds struck a- reef before they got
within hailing distance of a marriage
Heense They slipped away from
Miss Hardy's home at Gainesville
early Sunday morning and p_tarled to
Atlanta. Half an hour after they left

and wired to Chief Beavers, asking
ithat they be held. So Chief Beavers
sent a delegation of plainclothes men
‘to meet young Boyd and his sweet
'heart at the Terminal Station. In
‘stead of riding in triumph to the Or
‘dir‘ar_\' and thence to a minister, they
)\\'errf ridden to police headquarters in
the patrol wagon and there held to
awalt the arrival of the girl’s father
from Gainesville.
